She saw conditions as they were, and looks facts m the face; she tells the plain, practical, pointed truth which I believe will meet the sanction and approval of all decent and truth-loving people. I thank this good lady for her word's of cen sure anil disapproval. Let the truth come for and against our court house, "the filthiest in the State" says this good lady. Sv 1 have been believing for some time that our court house* was a target fov criticism* and believed Heme one would shoot at it, and I hope what the lady has said will cause those who are at the 'head of our County affairs to see that our court house gets the attention it deserves, and will be an honor in | stead of a disgrace.; One place in cur court' house I have heard one of our judges in hi1- chaf-ge to the Trmurmrv I'onnmirP in 'phim, terms, speaking of its. danger and disgrace, and yet this cesspool of ddttttgr mm comminution mil. been removed. And, strange to say, the do is of . this polluted place are often open and the odor is dread' ful. And yet, some of our people w mt a ntw, fine fashionable court houic; but ^ hope the old v ne will be bc-t ler kept before \ve get a new one. It has been said that "cleanliness i3 next? to godliness." A tree is known by the fruit it bears; people are known b ythe company they keep* | DR. S.

You Pay No More for these Warranted Tires la fact, you will find that USCO Bal loons, High-Pressure Cords^ind Fabrics are priced lower than many unmarked, unwarranted tires of ques tionable value on the market today. USCO tires are famous for their ability to give long mileage. They are protected by the (tame, trade mark and warranty of the United States Rubber Company? the world's largest rubber manufacturers and owners of the largest rubber plantation in the world. Come in and let us show you the advan tage in price and quality of these dependable their lilies and dislikes, and if we . willingly let filth, trash and rubbish I accumulate in our homes, places of ; butfinogg, or court house, we $ive people a right to think we. are filthy | or immoral in ^tH^Ufe and character.
